Kamikochi, nestled in Japan's Northern Alps within Chubu Sangaku National Park, offers a network of trails that are well-maintained paths and are suitable for various skill levels, showcasing the area's breathtaking landscapes. The area is known as the "Japanese Yosemite Valley." Kamikochi is preserved in its natural state within Chūbu-Sangaku National Park, is designated as one of Japan's National Cultural Assets, and is on the list of Special Natural Monuments and Special Places of Scenic Beauty. The main trail stretches from Taisho Pond to Myojin Bridge and spans approximately 10.5 kilometers. This route meanders along the Azusa River, passing iconic landmarks such as Kappa Bridge and Myojin Pond. You are treated to panoramic views of towering peaks, dense forests, and marshlands in the remote mountainous highland valley.
